Los Angeles Times
Assistant Video Editor (Finance)
Join the hundreds of talented and innovative team members who are making an impact every day at California Times, incorporating Los Angeles Times and San Diego Union-Tribune, two of the most iconic media brands in the nation. Whether you love to tell compelling stories or want to drive our award-winning powerhouse in new directions, the Los Angeles Times team is the place to be.
We'll shortly be looking for an assistant video editor at L.A. Times Studios, a video production brand owned by Nant Media Holdings, LLC. L.A. Times Studios is responsible for a variety of projects, including “Second Opinion,” a digital series on public health, climate, technology and other topics, and Bravo's television adaptation of the hit Los Angeles Times podcast “Dirty John.”
The assistant video editor will be responsible for several key aspects of the post-production workflow, including ingesting raw footage, media organization and multicam creation in Adobe Premier, and handling the application of on-screen text (lower thirds, uppers, captions) and generating original cuts adjacent to the main project. These additional cuts will be used on social media to promote Studios projects, and will also live adjacent to the main cuts in video galleries devoted to our projects.
This is a position for a detail-oriented team player. You will juggle work supporting edits while managing your own edits of excerpts and social media videos. In this second area you will be encouraged to be creative, and you will work with producers as they interact with the social media and consumer marketing departments.
The assistant video editor will report to the L.A. Times Studios post-production supervisor.
